reagan, in uttering the words ronald reagan. you can just say ronald reagan like a spell, and wonderful things begin to happen. in the 2008 presidential campaign, former massachusetts governor mitt romney introduced his reagan zone of economic freedom. not the romney zone of economic freedom, mr. romney does not have that sort of power yet. it was the reagan zone of economic freedom. president obama in his foreign policy team have pursued a misbehavior to the world trade organization to try to stop china from cheating wherever possible and question their human rights, but romney thinks that turns america into a door mat. he thinks president obama is letting china walk all over him. he would not push china on that wto stuff. his solution instead is to create a reagan zone. a reagan zone for all of the countries around china. while it is extremely unlikely china would join the reagan zone, our offer to allow china to join would modify their trade and industrial behavior. seriously, that's the plan. it's up there on the current cam

mitt romney is not ronald reagan. what was striking is how many republicans were willing to say on the record that the comparison just doesn't cut the mustard. those things you just mentioned. the economy is so much weaker, very different electorate. ronald reagan didn't have a tough primary battle the way that mitt romney did. but the biggest difference between these two elections is that the country was so different then. the south was still considered democratic. it was only beginning to trend republican. so the week before the election, you had ronald reagan c campaigning in new york city trying to win new york. jimmy carter was campaigning in texas, unimaginable today. it was a very different map, and that's one of the reasons that it's so hard for romney to win this election. what's amazing is we've seen republicans make this ronald reagan comparison before. about four years ago when john mccain fell in the polls, his people also trying to draw that comparison. >> to your point, let me put up the screen on the r
